Did you get it right? 🪼 The treatment for a general jellyfish sting is: 1. Carefully remove tentacles using tweezers or a gloved hand. 2. Apply hot water if available (as hot as the victim can handle). 3. If hot water is unavailable or does not lessen discomfort, apply an ice pack. 4. Monitor vital symptoms. * Excludes treatment for Irukandji and Box Jellyfish stings. . . . #Jellyfish #JellyfishSting #FirstAidTips #SafeWithSurvival | Survival
